These New Puritans, a band of four 19- year olds from Southend, UK, are Jack Barnett (vocals, guitar), his twin brother George (drums), Thomas Hein (bass, sampler) and Sophie Sleigh-Johnson (synth, sampler). Since their inception in October 2006, These New Puritans have released the limited edition Now Pluvial EP overseas and created the 15-minute "Navigate, Navigate" to be the soundtrack for Hedi Slimane's Autumn 2007 for Dior Homme's catwalk show in Paris, all the while earning a strong reputation for their furious live shows. Beat Pyramid is the next phase in their hyperbolic progression.

 

 


 
曾來澳演出，來自加拿大的Caribou，其充滿Shoegazing的電音搖滾樂風，是Indie Electronic/電子民謠樂派的代表人物，經上張專輯”The Milk Of Human Kindness”向七十年代Krautrock 探索後，如先行單曲”Melody Day”細膩的樂器鋪排，新專輯”Andorra”回拾”Up In Flames”的熱鬧輕快的電子搖滾!

Psapp的上一張專輯Tiger,My Friend讓人在所謂民謠電音曲風裡聽見最不同的，或許是他們不僅僅以把玩小技巧或轉折為滿足，他們根源於旋律性─種民謠的可能，這與Folktronica這詞彙一旦連結起來，或許會造成誤解，但也的確解釋了Psapp能夠被稱之為此類音樂的原因：在合成音色間尋覓旋律巧妙性的靈性、感性樂隊─而相較於其他民謠電音樂手在前進步伐時，專注於取樣拼貼，或向搖滾樂爵士樂取經，Psapp居然沒有包袱的比上一張專輯來得更「好聽」。

若說上一張作品裡，音符的敏感度是一種聲響對於旋律的發想，那麼這張新專輯則將全面性的將搖曳風情流暢進你心，電子音符像是伴奏樂隊般，在真軍樂器與合成環繞間，如恰到好處的步伐對應，與女主唱歌聲相互翩然起舞。( by coldbean )
